Boys will be boys

As a last hurrah before school starts, we have been hanging out with friends, going out to eat, fires up the canyon, and camping! I know mom- I WENT CAMPING!  AF canyon was so busy that weekend that we had a hard time finding a spot, but I think the boys did well.  With a little landscape work, the spot was perfect!

June/July

My hiatus is over; I needed a break from the blog world and I spent some time with friends and family and turned off my computer for a while.  Here is a quick update of the past couple of months- bear with me on the long post:

We moved- really I moved while Evan enjoyed Amsterdam!  I had everything packed and organized by room with color-coded labels. From the time the moving truck pulled up to the old house and the time it left the new, I am pretty sure that it was only 45 minutes!  Record time and everything was in the correct room so I didn't have to shuffle boxes everywhere.

To keep myself busy, I made a list of projects I wanted to do while Evan was gone.  I think I only finished 1/2 of them.  One I did finish was recovering our pillows on the couch.

My dad and little sis came up for a visit.  It was fun to see them and have someone else in the house since I was going crazy without Evan.

Evan was able to come home right before the 4th of July.  Which was probably best since the 4th is his all-time fav holiday! We went to the balloon festival at Provo High. It was so windy that only a few balloons went up, but it was still fun to walk around and watch them try to get some of the balloons up.

When Evan came home we went for a road trip to California and Arizona.  Ev was able to talk to a few different law firms about internships next summer.  We had so much fun with my family and with the Lesueurs. While we were in California we went to Sea World with my sisters and Evan's sister and her family.  

We were able to spend the 24th with good friends from the neighborhood.  We went up to watch fireworks behind campus.  From where we were sitting, we could see the Carrie Underwood show on the big screen.

It was a fast summer.  We have really one more weekend before school starts again so hopefully we can do something fun.
